Great getaway destination. Small relativel built up island with lots of golf buggies! Everything is expensive. Staff are adequate to purpose but do not usually do any extras. Would benefit from more client focus.

I arrived on Hamilton after an operation on my foot wearing a moon boot. The staff went out of their way to accomodate me. Shifting me to a room closer to amenities as to minimise my walking distance. Gave me a later checkout so I could rest a bit befor my transfer and even dropping me off at the marina... More

Our hassle free holiday was arranged by My Holiday Centre and we couldn't have been happier. From the moment we stepped off the plane, everything ran like clock work. Per arranged bus to the Reef Hotel, luggage delivered to the room, clean and comfortable room, with great views out to the beach. Plenty of dining options included in our breakfast... More

We travelled to Hamilton Island in June 2013 for week away from the cold, to celebrate our anniversary. Our first impressions of the Reef View Hotel, were that it looked a little dated, but it was in a fantastic location. We were situated on the tenth floor in an Ocean View Room. The room was big enough, however we were... More

We were a little apprehensive about staying at the Reef view due to some of the bad reviews on here, but thankfully we needn't have worried! Transport is sorted all from the airport, and our luggage was in our room before we even got there even though there was no queue at check in, which we thought was great! The... More

I enjoyed bingo in the reef lounge and had a beautiful apartment on the 19th top floor with fantastic views. Unfortunately their security in the Reef Hotel and for the entire Island is privately owned and operated and they have their own laws. When I was not included in a private function after Bingo I was handcuffed and removed from... More

We were here for 7 nights, and couldn't be happier. Location is the best on the island. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants, pool bar, and just a short stroll to the marina. We hired a buggy for 3 days (originally for 2 but added an extra day) mainly because they were fun and super convenient but you can certainly... More
